Default Tinker, Evers, to Chance

"In case it wasn't clear, I really don't think the poem had much to do with all three getting into the HOF."

earth to peter ....the poem had EVERYTHING to do with them being inducted. without the poem there is no hall of fame for tinker/evers/chance


"This trio of players were inducted into The Baseball Hall Of Fame in 1946 and enshrined into this august body as a unit. To my knowledge no other time in history have players been so honored as to be inducted into Baseball's Hall of Fame as a playing unit of individuals.

In the annals of sports history the only group of individuals honored comparably as a unit would be the "Four Horsemen Of Notre Dame".
